Anti-witchcraft rituals in ancient Mespotamia
Hosted by the University of Würzburg as part of the DFG-funded project Corpus babylonischer Rituale und Beschwörungen gegen Schadenzauber: Edition, lexikalische Erschließung, historische und literarische Analyse, directed by former SOAS staff member, Daniel Schwemer, the Critical Catalogue of Mesopotamian Anti-witchcraft Rituals (CCMAwR) allows users to search for particular cuneiform tablets indexed in the collection or to browse by language or place or origin. The site also links to related websites (please note that this is a work in progress) and provides background information on the practice of anti-witchcraft rituals in ancient Mesopotamia
